Description
Trapster(R), your iPhone alerts you as you approach police speed traps, red light cameras, and other kinds of traps.

* option to play alerts just once
* display distances in Km or miles
* traps show correctly in all locales
(non US settings)
* 1.0.1 fixed the crash issue
It’s a high tech way to do the same thing people have been doing for years with CB radios and flashing headlights at other drivers to warn them of a speed trap ahead. It works using the GPS and WiFi location capabilities of your iPhone 3G.
As you approach a trap an alert sound will play, according to the type of trap (for example "Live Police!"). You can report traps that you see by simply tapping the screen. You can also rate the traps that other users report. The system learns the credibility of users over time based on how many other users agree with the traps they report.
It’s FREE, and might save you a lot time, embarrassment, and money spent on traffic violation fees and increased insurance premiums. Download it now and give it a try!
Notes:
1) You cannot drag the map with your fingers. This app shows only traps around your current GPS location, much like a radar detector.
2) The red dot will follow your current location automatically. As your position moves off the edge of the map, the map will automatically re-position.
Click the "i" in the lower right of the app for complete instructions.
